Filed To Story: Raven Sullivan the Unvalued Daughter
“Raven,” I told her in a curt way, and she surprised us all by screaming out in anger. She is cursing Raven and says all sorts of vile things about her. When she started on the threats on Raven’s life, I couldn’t contain my growl at her. Forgetting who I was standing next to, but again he misinterpreted my growl at Cheryl.
“Didn’t I just tell you both, that none of you need to mess with Raven ever again? Do not approach her, do not hurt her. We are done, there will be no more. I will kill you myself if I find out that you didn’t listen to me. We will all be lucky to get out of this mess with just a fine or something. We cannot afford any more charges levied against us.or incidents against us. No more!” Alpha Graham roars out the last bit and Reagan ends up waking up and turns over to see what is happening.
Before she can open her mouth to see what is happening I hear a voice from right behind me, I almost jumped because no one was there before, but my escort comes sliding past me and stops in front of Cheryl’s cell. “You are a real piece of work, and I see what I could have been condemned to now. I am glad to see your real feelings come through. I was going to give you a chance, despite what my father told me. After seeing how much you care for the mate that you chose for yourself, I have changed my mind. I, Joshua DeSavage, incoming Beta of the Blood Walker pack, reject you Cheryl Peters as my true mate” he tells her, and from the look on his face, he is almost too disgusted to look at her.
I see tears in Cheryl’s eyes as she sees him, and didn’t realize that he was there, or that she had a second chance mate. She is done for now, as she had rejected her first mate, and her second rejected her, but I can’t blame him, she is obsessed with another man. I feel like I need to help him out, I know the heartbreak he is going through while waiting on her to accept it. “Answer him! Now! Accept his rejection, right now” I yelled at her. She needs to just accept it, she caused it to begin with anyway by hurting her second-chance mate like that.
“I Cheryl Peters, daughter of the Gamma of the Silver Blade pack, accept your rejection, Joshua DeSavage,” Cheryl said, and I could tell he instantly felt better, but her pain increased. Seeing it play out in front of me I see it clearly now. Sometimes when the person who was in the wrong accepts the rejection, they seem to feel the brunt of the pain. Joshua looks at me and nods as he passes me. I can tell that he was giving me thanks for forcing her to stop stalling and trying to find a way to talk him into it. He walks back down the hallway to the stairs to stand again. I no longer want to be here with them. Seeing Reagan, and the rejection that just happened reminds me of the pain I bear for doing the same thing.
“Why are you here you traitor?” Reagan yells at me and reaches out of her cell to try to punch me. Great, my mate wants to go a round with me now. Goddess, please just make this night go by quicker. I am miserable here, and I just want to leave.
Reagan’s POV
My father’s roar wakes me up from my sleep, I am scared to hear it. I was worried that he was being tortured and immediately jumped up to check on him. I see Justin standing there, looking handsome, and the only one of us that was not currently locked up. I then remember that I owe him a punch. I walked up to the bars on my cell and tried to connect with his face when another guy walked past and starts to speak to Cheryl. Great, I swear that Cheryl just can’t stop making problems wherever we go. She has caused enough problems already, but at least this one is going to really cost her, I should know.
She rejected her first mate, to see if Brandon would be her second chance mate, and that didn’t work out for her. This guy was really attractive, and in normal circumstances, I would have flirted with him, but dad and Justin were both here. He was pissed and clearly disappointed in his true mate. Plus, with him being a Blood Walker, it just wasn’t going to work out. I gnawed on my bottom lip, Goddess, I really hate that, as I can tell by how he moves he would be good to get tangled up with. I looked away when he glanced over at me, as I didn’t want to get caught staring at him.
